Ron Pratt hi Ron

[@Joshua79C]

Shirts coming soon....?

[@melvin2675]

Ron Pratt God bless you, you are the best.

[@alexmohler7658]

That could have been worse than what it was. Glad that the driver was ok and the truck didn't roll. Awesome video and awesome job Mr. Pratt

[@psalmsoftheheartministries7103]

I am new to this channel but am glad I found it. Way better than watching some one supervise and not help. You are always up front. THE GRAND MASTER.

[@halhunter1974]

Stumbled across your videos today Ron and got hooked immediately. My dad was a tow driver when I was just a kid. Use to go with him on calls and was always amazed what you guys drive up to. Hal Oakdale, CA age 72.

[@MazeFrame]

Didn´t realize I was watching for an hour. Speaks for the quality of the content!

[@RonPratt]

Thank you very much. Greatly appreciated. God bless.

[@bradenstephens9885]

I'm 13 and you have inspired me to be a tow truck worker when i get older

[@RonPratt]

Awesome. Learn all you can now and be ready for hard work. You can do anything you put your heart into . Best wishes and God bless.

[@jeffexley1004]

Love your videos. I have run a few wreckers over the years,. ,, nothing like yours.always wanted to own myown wrecker.too busy with body work to get one.running my own shop and teaching people has taken a lot of my time. Please keep it up, you are a real pro.thank you so much.

[@Kickinpony66]

Man, that is one lucky driver! That Guard Cable didn't do a lot. He's probably lucky it didn't catch, and turn the truck over. As always Ron, another great video of a Safe Recovery!

[@cardiackidjones2848]

Totally great orchestration of skill and power......with plenty of danger in my eyes ....coming from someone who is a nurse. Great job and thank you for what you do!

[@chuckboyle8456]

Excellent recovery, extremely well done. Thanks! No lives lost, cargo recovered and the crew of MWT comes through with professionalism & commitment!

[@RonPratt]

Thanks so much for the support. God bless and thanks for watching.

[@russse2793]

Enjoy your channel immensely. Glad no one was seriously injured. Your rotator truck is a darn beast.

[@sammythefox1057]

gg to the truck driver, didn't fall on the side, didn't lose the load, didn't hit any other cars! very lucky :)

[@RonPratt]

I agree, it could have been a tragic event and I have seen those. God bless and thanks for watching.

[@davidyuzyk6343]

Nice to see someone who takes pride in their work. The way you interact with your employees is something special. Would love to work for a guy like you. Taking a lot of mental notes if I ever end up in a similar position.

[@55197A]

This is about the second video that I've watched. I never knew the intricacies of pulling a truck out of the ditch. Of course I've never been around such things. I'm amazed at how time-consuming it is. Good video keep it up

[@EdisnFox]

Wow, I just watched the whole recovery video. Great work on keeping it upright Ron.

[@harrisarts]

Thanks for your hard work, and the videos Ron. They really highlight the dangers of your daily work. Keep on trucking.

[@victorthompson7331]

Another good job Ron, a difficult recovery done safely. Even if it did take longer than expected. God Bless you Ron, Mike & Talon, for all you do for your community.

[@randyvehrs1036]

Victor Thompson

[@OffroadChannel]

You know when Ron says "Lemme get the remote", it's about to start :D

[@philpedro3938]

another great video Ron! Amazing how difficult some of these recoveries are, but you always have multiple game plans which is very clever. Be safe and god bless.

[@TheSwampdoggydog]

Wow so lucky to cross over the highway and not hit anything, the driver should buy a lottery ticket. Nice to see the rotator flexing her muscles 💪, good job safely done, congrats Ron. Keep safe and god bless

[@Yurindeep]

This was the very first Ron Pratt video I watched (I think). I've been a fan since. I used to run a roll back big enough to haul the rotater in the mountain passes of British Columbia, Canada. The company I was working for had a severe lack of understanding for things like safety, math or maintenance. I quit back a long time ago, and I heard the company went down hill from there.

[@robertsymonds2366]

been on the road 30 yrs doing heavy haul. I would love to learn this field. Got nothing but respect for the folks doing this job

[@nitrosport5]

Im always impressed about how you have your trucks setup and organized. Nothin worse than having to dig for stuff on the side of the road. These videos are neat to watch, went on tows with my dad as a kid, nothing to this extent though, he just had small 1 ton wrecker and a 2 ton wrecker.

[@RonPratt]

Thanks so much. Earlier I responded to a comment on how messy my truck was LOL. There is nothing like working along side your dad is there? I watched mine, learned from him and still do even though he is partially retired. My son and daughter also like to accompany me when they can. Family is the key! Thanks so much for watching and God bless.

[@itrack4u]

Ron, watching your videos is as entertaining as reading a good book. Thanks for posting.

[@RonPratt]

Thank you very much. I am an avid reader, so I take that as a HUGE compliment. Thanks for watching and God bless.

[@allenbigelow9281]

Take it from a guy that owned 13 units you guys do nice job

[@allenbigelow9281]

Good work boys

[@allenbigelow9281]

Super transport Inc out of Albany New York says you guys are all professionals

[@mikebiron7339]

Man oh man. Your shop seams to be located perfectly to all this destruction you video tape. A couple miles each way, and lots of recovery work. Be safe out there!

[@myadventuresincooking6331]

I love the sound of the turbo on that truck

[@MrTulips21]

Really enjoy this channel it shows how hard it is to do this type of work be safe and God Bless.

[@RonPratt]

Thank you so much. Yes as rewarding as this job is, it wears a body down after years of it. I do still enjoy what I do, but my body some days doesn't agree. Thanks so much for watching and God bless.

[@RedRacconKing]

It's 138am and I'm binge watching your videos. What am I doing with my life?

[@bettyechols6405]

Me too...keeps us off the road!

[@wandalbowen8101]

You are enjoying excellent video

[@faerieSAALE]

Now that is what I call professional wrecker service. Excellent video with full command of his people and always operating with safety and care. Also gained my subscription.

[@mensamidget]

as a public safety supervising officer I think the wrong call was made by state because it is a time problem. Sitting still(70 plus 0) or driving at 5 mph against flow of traffic(70 plus 5) is the same energy impact wise. So the time spent on the shoulder is the exposure to danger. If driving into on traffic will cut time on road by 2/3 I say it worth doing.

[@messianichebrewshawnkawcak1550]

Yeah, if I were the cop I would have said go to the shoulder and back to the exit, also would have torn up grass less prevented erosion problems. I would even say pull it back through where it went in prevent more erosion problems.

[@dorothyford6616]

Mansmidget, l totally agree with your assessment. Time, exposure ratios equal bad call. Made for a hreat video though.

[@Mosibfu1]

thats some customer server, plows thru the field before delivering seeds.

[@garybalser4822]

I just stumbled on your videos and watched 3 in a row. It's so great to see someone who knows their craft so well and can multitask.even my wife liked watching.

[@RonPratt]

Great! I am so glad you both are enjoying the content. I now have about 10% of my viewers that are women. I am so pleased about that too. God bless and I hope you continue to enjoy the channel.

[@Victormassano]

This is the first time that I saw the technique of cribbing a ramp to bring the trailer to the road , It's always a pleasure to watch you over come difficult recoveries Ron...Feel kinda guilty that I'm watching and not helping , your team is amazing . Be Safe out there Midwest Truck and God Bless

[@RonPratt]

I had to use the same technique earlier today only the trailer was leaning a lot worse today. Hope to have video up within a couple of weeks. Thanks my friend and God bless.

[@brucedickison8788]

Thank you so much, You videos are so great. Another professional job. I was beside a truck like Talons pulling a rig and found myself looking to see if they had hooked up right! I am learning so much from you, thanks for taking the time to explain everything

[@AP9311]

after watching this video. it didn't seem that long lol. I know it's an hour! but very safe and good recovery! #goslowandmoveover and great job, Ron! many thanks for the video and God bless! you deserve good well earned rest and some hot dinner with your wife and family!

[@Sim00110]

I don't know how I ended up here but that had me glued to the screen. Awesome stuff.

[@RonPratt]

Well I am certainly glad you accidentally found your way to my channel. I hope you enjoy the videos and God bless.

[@philsmidwestclassiccars150]

Another great recovery Ron. It still is a shame even with all the safety gear out there folks still don't want to slow down for the recovery. Seems like most were blowing by you at highway speeds. Seen you using the rim straps again. Unbelievable that they can help pull all that weight. Keep up the great work & God Bless you & yours.

[@p3th3t1c]

My biggest fear all these years of driving (24) has been to blow a steer tire. I pull a load from Livingston, Ca to Tacoma,Wa and then a back haul out of Richland,Wa in the tri-cities area back to Stockton,Ca every week, I scale out 78000+ going north and coming south I'm normally at 79800. (my mid-haul over to Spokane,Wa is only 3500lbs! heh) Thankfully I drive for a company that is very safety minded, with all the passes I pass over every week they have no problem giving me new steer tires when-ever I feel there's a problem with them, they even let me run snow tires on my drives all year round. Glad to see the driver come out ok, sure have seen enough roll-overs. Awesome work you do and love that your safety first even if it eats the clock up. Stay Safe Brother!

[@charlesjoachim2179]

I blew a steer tire and roled it it was pretty scary

[@zazarays]

whatever happened to trains

[@p3th3t1c]

ouch brother, hope you came out ok

[@rwaitt14153]

I run Michelin XZA3 steers and nothing else. They run about $1500 for a pair with mount and balance. You don't pinch pennies with your steer tires. Quality rubber will save your life and bad rubber will end it.

[@brendadoherty3060]

[@darreng5178]

Another job well done Ron. As always, I really enjoy your videos. Its feels like I'm there with you guys sometimes!

In the face of adversity and problem solving I try to imagine how I would solve this DIFFICULT problem. Then I watch how you did it. You are a true MASTER in this field of work. Nice video Sir.

[@colinbrown5597]

Great attention to safety when you were getting out of the truck! And good on you for having the radios for your crew! Great addition to your kit. So many other people need to add that.

Another amazing recovery. Excellent job to your whole team. Done safely.

[@ronaldarchie7276]

I seen the wrecker you started on I started on a GMC cabover with a 750 holems wrecker body in the late 70's till I was injured on the job in 1983 and was not able to drive a wrecker anymore. I love to watch you using the tator you are very good at what you do.

Unbelievable how much work it takes. And your such a respectful person!

[@diggerpete2358]

another briliant video ron, that was a tricky recovery well done ron

[@merlinmonson2133]

it should be the tow truck drivers discretion as to how to remove the vehicle. law enforcement are not experts on vehicle recovery. had you been able to pull the truck out the direction you wanted it would have gone faster and everyone would have been out of there before dark.

[@nickvlogs114]

Merlin Monson

[@northstarracing18d-4d]

Merlin Monson there just trying to find out the fastest and safest way and he didn't tell him how to he just asked if what he thought would be a good idea

[@scoobydoo4457]

The tow truck operator said that he ''knew it was against policy'' when he asked to take the truck backwards against traffic and to exit the highway using an on ramp, that implies that police have rules that they need to follow with regard to removing these vehicles. Law enforcement may not know anything about vehicle recovery and sure it would have been easier to pull it out backwards but that's not his only concern, he is also tasked with making sure other motorist that are driving that stretch of the road are safe and he deemed that driving a big rig along the side of the road against traffic wasn't safe, and I agree.

[@boltentoke]

That is HP's call... It's their highway. There are plenty of reasons to not take it up the wrong way on both the highway then the on ramp. HP has a lot of things to take into consideration rather than just what's the quickest and easiest.

[@Redacted_]

Yeah I agree 1000% here in North Carolina, when you pull up the police, HP, anyone tells you it's your scene and they go sit in their car until youre done..

[@tbohtwentyone]

Excellent People. Excellent Work serving others. Nice that no one is cursing. Best channel on KZbin.

[@RonPratt]

Thank you so much for the kind words. I appreciate you watching and yes, this channel will ALWAYS be family friendly. I work very hard to maintain that goal. God bless.

[@noelguerrero2770]

Amazing how I am not bored watching your videos. I used to replace relatively large industrial three phase motors. Not as heavy as your lifts but as tedious and dangerous when we have to apply power to the replacements for testing. Would be proud to have one of your baseball caps.Am on the other side of the world and don't have much disposable income though. Great videos. I have a clone of the wrangler jeep and I will take inspiration from your truck in terms of styling.

[@RonPratt]

I am so glad you enjoy the videos. I would love to be able send every viewer a cap, but it just gets too costly. I do hope you understand. Thank you for watching and may God bless you.

My dad and 2 brothers were tow truck drivers in the 1970's (not semi towers). He said accidents were not for the feint of heart. So, if you couldn't stand to see people get hurt or killed, go into another business. You guys are doing a great job with your towing. Glad I found your videos. I'm going to watch all of them.

WOW , That was a marathon job Ron... Way to go team Midwest !!! Did you have to cage the brakes on the trailer or where you able to air up the trailer? Great job Ron That was a tough one . Be Safe out there, All The Best and God Bless

[@ahnbra]

As usual Good work Ron and crew. It really helps that you know so much about towing and recovery of big rigs. How long in real time did this recovery take? I see the video is a touch over 1 hour long. In Minnesota I think you would have been allow to go the wrong way because of time and safety. I disagree with the troupers request you not do that. The decision to say no could have turned out badly. It did not turn out badly luckily. Part of the reason for that is how you do your job and what you know about towing and recovery. Thanks for sharing this video.

[@gorillaau]
